ABSTRACT: A computational program was developed to estimate optimal stereolithographic process parame-
ters, namely, photo-initiator concentration, light intensity and the initial temperature of a photo-sensitive polymer.
The computational program proved to be a promising tool for the optimization of the stereolithographic process
allowing the fabrication ...
